So good.
Great album. Favourive album of the 90's. They released all of the singles from the album in limited edition vinyl.
Nice. Reminds me of Bosnia. Happy days.
Sounds like a bittersweet symphony?

Watch/listened to them at there home coming at haigh hall, Wigan. Cracking gig 8)
I know it's not Urban Hymns but this is a great live performance.
Anyone who has not seen it should watch Rolling People from that Wigan gig. Crowd are bonkers.
earlier Verve stuff is amazing too 🙂 (Richard Ashcroft was in Verve)
Urban Hymns is verve
It is but not as much as A Northern Soul! So it Goes is genius!
Great album, though I prefer a Northen Soul for History alone. I too was at Haigh Hall, great gig and DJ Shadow, Beck and John Martin supporting.
Nick Macabe is really underrated IMHO, very tastful and always a little bit different. The drummer is really good too. Shame Fourth was soooo bad.

For sure!
Don't read this if you don't want to have the album ruined.... why the f does he sing in a terrible American accent all the time? Especially on his solo stuff. He's (supposedly) proudly from Wigan, isn't he?
Richard ashcrofts dad was one of my teachers at school. Great teacher.
Released in 1997 - wow, feels like yesterday.
sorry I'd had I'd a pint or two. I meant the stuff earlier than Urban Hymns is really good (read different in a good way) Verve had quite a following before the success of Urban Hymns although I love this album too.Not explored the albums but got their first few released cd singles.Some of the B tracks sound kinda experimental.
History by the verve. One of my favourite songs ever.
Nice one athgray! 8)
I loved Urban Hymns back in the late 90's. I missed A Northern Soul though apart from This Is Music (Which is still up there as one of my favourite songs), and didn't get into it until about 98. I also missed Storm In Heaven completely until about 5 years ago... now that is some LP, their best imo.
